Abstract In this work, we employed Density Functional Theory calculations combined with search techniques based on evolutionary algorithms to predict and characterize crystalline structures composed of nitrogen (N6) cage-like molecules. We found stable molecular crystals and a rich phenomenology associated with their behavior under pressure, including atomic rebonding and semiconductor-metal transitions. This investigation resides in the context of high-energy-density materials, since molecular species containing only nitrogen atoms tend to dissociate into N2 molecules, releasing large amounts of energy. [Display omitted] •Nitrogen allotropes have potential as clean high energy-density materials.•Prediction of crystal structures is performed using evolutionary algorithms.•New N6molecular crystals were obtained and analyzed by computational techniques.•We predict stable structures which can undergo a semiconductor-metal transition.
